A T495s to replace my aging T430. The T430 is still quite usable, but the original battery with 34% health isn't great, though it gets through a 2 hour lecture no problem.

I do miss the trackpoint buttons and smaller trackpad, I tend to move the mouse with my palm while using the trackpoint, but otherwise the new one is better in every way.

Yeah I could get a new battery for it, but getting a new battery, a better screen, more RAM and a better CPU would be more expensive than the 150€ total I paid for the T495s and would still leave me with a 14 year old laptop.
